Background

ExxonMobil, Hai Phong People’s Committee and Japan power generation company JERA have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to work together on a potential integrated LNG to Power project in Hai Phong in 2020.[4]

As of July 2023, there are no updates on the project and the project is not included in the Power Development Plan 8.[5] The terminal is presumed to be shelved.

As of August 2025, there have been no project updates in over four years, and the project is inferred to be cancelled. However, another proposal has recently emerged in Hai Phong to develop the Haiphong LNG power station.[6]
